4 days prior to presents. A day has passed since they arrived at Draconic Deus.
Outside 11:00 Am time
Elysium, Divine Realm in Real time, Within a Training Dimension. Time diluted to 1:7 days. 5 hours passed. Fubuki Training.
After their conversation, Ryuu continued his training with Fubuki and stood before her where she had to fight him and show what she was capable of doing. He stretches and cracks some of his bones, having the habit of doing this akin to a tradition.
Ryuu's avatar is malleable and changes to whatever form he wishes so long as it is organic or techno-organic and couldn't turn into an object unless he uses some magic.
Meanwhile, Fubuki wondered how she would fare against him, vaguely understanding his strength when he created a small universe at the palm of his hands. It is laughable that he intended to train her to do the same feat despite knowing that she was not a monster like him. Fubuki knows her weakness and limitations but still has a goal to reach the pinnacle and Stand by her sister. Ryuu looked at her and knew what she was feeling and said.
"If you keep thinking that you can't do it then you are just limiting yourself. We'll spar and I'll change what kind of fighting style you are suited with. In this world, Draconic Deus people have different fighting types namely Power, Support, Technique and Wizard type. You are the latter which we will be adding other types to improve your combat process by adding weapons later."
The Power types: It's essentially people who are strong in a straightforward manner, can cause great damage, either physical or with special powers. Think of Issei in his Balance Breaker or Xenovia.
Technique types: People who rely mostly on skill rather than brute force, taking advantage of the weak points of opponents and their mistakes to efficiently bring them down. Think of Yuuto or Sona.
Wizard types: People who have great output for their special abilities, not only for their strength, but just as much in their control and variety when it comes to them. Examples would be Akeno or Rossweisse.
Support types: People with special abilities that perform at their best when taken advantage of by one or more partners, such as Asia with her healing and defense, Issei's Transfer or Gasper's time stop.
Fubuki relies on her Esper abilities that are basically Wizard type but she likes Power and Techniques since support isn't important for her. Ryuu already thought of a few weapons suited for her fighting style which is a Spear, not normal one but Chastiefol as she can freely manipulate it with her mind and can change its form to better suit her. Ryuu doesn't have the materials but aims to ask Kanae to make him a Sacred Tree and craft one later. Unlike technology, Ryuu can make magical weapons and items if he wishes as long as it isn't bound by science.
He decided to make the armor and weapons of his children be magic items instead and make their spacecraft the same way. Ryuu is still not the best in magic and technology along with craftsmanship since it is The Scarlet King Expertise, his or more precisely Yaldabaoth's Nephew. Fubuki nodded and said.
"Alright, I'll do my best then." Ryuu smiled sensing the psionic power churning around him making Ryuu wonder if she would try executing a railgun attack if she just knew the fundamentals. She then created a powerful hurricane that dragged debris sending them toward Ryuu who deflected and redirected them then conjured blood needles before intercepting all the debris and said.
"Try to reshape the debris into weapons but if you can't then try to use precision instead of destructive power. You consider collateral damages if you're ever going to use your power. Seriously, do you guys pay for the damages from the fight? Or does the association do the job for yah?"
He commented while evading and intercepting her attack with his own made from blood while Fubuki witness how he was toying with him and decided to increased the intensity of her hurricane since she still unable to do what he suggested but cast even more hurricane having a [ High speed thought processing ], [ Multi-cast ], [ Parallel thought processing ], and [ Status Effect resistance ] gave her an edge having grown significantly that she was able to create multi massive tornado and manipulate the rocks at extreme velocity.
If Fubuki were to return then her Rank would be at least 4th Rank A and go even more since she is able to go further than before. However, her base stats what is lacking as she is unstable and one wrong move can topple her. Ryuu is amazed by how strong her destructive power is but it is all that she is doing and doesn't have the same precision like Tawata who is an expert in manipulating gravity. He smirked and said.
"I didn't expect you to have this much power. But you're using your power to flashy and…" Ryuu jumped on the debris in the air and blitzed toward a certain direction and precisely targeted a weak spot of Fubuki and kicked a small rock into her head forcing her telekinesis to be disrupted and making her fall from the air. He didn't even need to do anything as she was wide open and knew exactly where to hit. Ryuu jumped to catch from the air and landed on the ground while Fubuki was wincing from pain and said.
"M-My head….what did you do? I had a barrier set up around me." He chuckled seeing her flustered face since he didn't hurt too much with his attack and merely topple the piece that holds her power together and said.
"I just observe and analyze where your weak points are. My power is blood and I notice how the blood is flowing in that direction which made me conclude it is where I need to hit you to end our fight. And don't think I use any reality warping stop since I only use it that often."
Fubuki didn't believe him and was still trying to wrap her head around it but she suddenly noticed their position and couldn't help but blush as Ryuu held her in bridal carry and slowly helped her down and tried to compose herself. As perverted as it sounds, her body was rather light despite her curves and assets that was rather smooth and flawless up close. In his mind, she was cute when blushing unlike her serious demeanor reminded of Erza a bit.
Though, the scarlet haired is more strict and impatient when it comes to bad behavior especially within her guilds. That might be the reason why he acted upon reflexes because he reminded of someone within his harem?
Ryuu knew exactly what he did but didn't voice it since it wasn't his intention and was reflexed since he can easily use magic to safely lower her to the ground. Fubuki staggering as she stood and said.
"Seriously, are you intentionally doing this." Ryuu chuckled, giving a guilty smile and said.
"Maybe." Fubuki glared at him much to his enjoyment and said.
"Hahaha I'm just kidding. In all honesty, it was just a coincidence…I think?" She wasn't able to hear the last part and didn't try to make it a big deal as Fubuki rubbed the part where the pebble hit her as Ryuu cast magic to heal her and said.
"Sorry, hope I didn't hurt you too much? How do you feel?" Fubuki shook her head and said.
"It's fine, I can manage but are you telling the truth that's all it took to finish me off?" Ryuu nodded and said.
"Your barrier around you is unstable and unrefined as well as unevenly spread through your body. Some parts are sturdier than others." Ryuu commented on the flaws of her powers while Fubuki took it despite having her pride damaged a bit and crossed her hers unaware how it accentuated her asset and said.
"Overall, how did I do?" He rubbed his chin and pulled out a white board out of nothing as he began to illustrate everything that he was able to gather from their spar and said.
"First of all, I was caught by surprise by your improves powers and likely place you around 5th to 1st Rank A from your associates but this ONLY factory the destructive output you are able to cause since they are still much more skill and experience when it comes to fighting considering the two is trained by Atomic Samurai who near the apex of Swordsmanship."
Ryuu grinned wondering how it feels to get cut by Atomic Samurai and compare their techniques. Fubuki was a bit surprised and understood that it was true her power can eclipse the 1st Rank A in terms of destructive capabilities but when it comes to actual fight then she would lose because they are expert swordsmen capable of adapting to their surroundings and use them to their advantage.
Not to mention, Fubuki lacks a proper master to learn from and has been self training that hardly does anything as she doesn't know the proper way to utilize her powers. She nodded and listened as he continued.
"Second, I see that you use your power in a more direct way like moving things when an Esper can be so much more. As an Esper you can move anything with your mind , correct?" Fubuki nodded wondering what he wanted to say and said.
"Then does that include molecules? Couldn't you stop the movement of oxygen around a monster face? Or maybe turn the water to ice by precisely manipulating the atoms but I think that's too much at the current level you have."
Fubuki began to ponder his words since she never tried to explore her power beside what she was doing and mentally took notes as Ryuu continued.
"But I digress, my point is an Esper is connected to the World, Universe, Reality, etc. Someone with this power makes the world bend to their thoughts. I have someone who can help you train as the two of you have similar abilities. Her ability is Gravity manipulation and I believe you'll learn a lot from her."
Fubuki nodded wondering who this person would train her while his words echoed through her mind since she came to understand more of her power from him. Their training ended and she went to her temporary home within Draconic deus and went to take a shower as her body was covered in sweat. Fubuki felt the water washing away the dirt and sweat yet her mind was occupied by one thing.
'I wonder how much I'll improve training under him?' She is skeptical if their training will have any merits in the end since she had done everything to become a capable fighter even did heinous things that she began to regret but kept her goal in mind. If Ryuu knew about this, he wouldn't label her as evil since she is misguided and too self centered despite having her own group.
She just needs proper training and discipline that will bring out her potential. Fubuki began to recall his words and took them into a count before her mind wondered when she was able to touch his body and made her blush a bit.
Despite how she appears, Fubuki is still a virgin that hasn't formed any relationships before but went on a few dates yet all of them didn't last.
'That guy…I doubt that he's telling the truth about his charisma because it's affecting me….or am I just attracted to him because he's my type?'
Ryuu is honest with her and didn't hide the fact that his charisma has a certain effect on people which Fubuki took into account on his impression of Ryuu that made her confused. Fubuki shook her head and said.
'Whatever, I should worry more about getting stronger, but…I wonder what his goal was before?'
She wouldn't be surprise when he learn that he wanted to have a harem because of his naive thought before but in truth is the aspect of Yaldabaoth who said "Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth" this praise is the sole reason why most creature want strong males as it is the basis of his nature.
Ryuu is aware of this fact but still considers it as a naive dream of a child. His other goal is to help his parents, which he did.
Fubuki finishes her shower and changes her clothes into a more casual outfit. She went to the kitchen to prepare some lunch only to be greeted by Ryuu who was cooking in an apron and saw her arrive giving a welcoming smile and said.
"Sup, Fubuki. I'm making lunch as an apology about hitting your head and also….touching you without consent." Ryuu chuckled giving her an awkward smile before finish the lunch while Fubuki frown and said.
"Weren't you heading to have lunch with your family? Also, it's fine I wasn't badly hurt or anything and beside it was training. Not to mention, I'm not a weak woman." She exclaimed while he weakly smiled and said.
"I know, and I'm omnipresent which is why I'm not missing out with my family." Fubuki still felt offended but calmed down when she smelled the meal and said.
"Fine, I still don't understand how your omnipresence works." Ryuu smiled and said.
"Quite simple, I know you have parallel thought processing and it is similar but I'm just one being without any clones and stop. I just displace myself through time and space." She didn't understand and became even more confused while Ryuu sighs and gives up.
"Well you eventually get there. Anyways, hope you like stir fry noodles!" He grinned as he added wine that burst to flame giving Fubuki a show making her slightly smile at how immature his action and can't deny it rather nice seeing a man cook for her that was her type. Ryuu finished and set the tables as he gave each of them as Fubuki commented.
"Not that I don't mind your company but, doesn't this affect your meal with your woman?" Ryuu shook his head, snapping the chopstick and said.
"Not really, food is just nothing more than habit and a desire at this point since my body doesn't need food to survive. Though, I can still taste which is why I still eat." Fubuki nodded as she snapped the chopstick and began eating.
Taking a moment to appreciate the food and how it was far superior than the top class restaurant that she had been and the aroma made her salivate but composed herself and took a bite.
The moment her tongue tasted his food instantly made her moan and quickly realize what she did and blush as Ryuu chuckled and said.
"It's fine, I think it's basically a normal reaction to anyone who tastes my food and I'm flattered that you're enjoying it." Fubuki nodded and didn't try to explain herself since it would just become more embarrassing and continue eating their meal. She made some small talk and conversation which Ryuu happily shared in regard to her training and Ryuu commented.
"I think giving you a weapon like a magic spear similar to Chastiefol." Fubuki never heard it before and exclaimed.
"Chastiefol? Is this a weapon from another world?" Ryuu nodded and said.
"That's right, it is perfect for your fighting style and I believe you'll greatly improve your combat prowess by doing so." Fubuki nodded and said.
"Is that so? Then I'm looking forward to our session having notable results as I tried many ways to improve my power but I haven't advanced for a long time." Ryuu finish his meal and said,
"It will because I'm doing the training. Not to mention, you'll learn under one of my women but fair warning, she's a bit bad tempered." Fubuki nodded and said.
"It's fine as long she doesn't go overboard." Ryuu nodded and said.
"She won't, I guarantee that."
